The 2018 Vodafone Ghana Music Awards came of on Saturday, April 14, at the Accra International Conference Center.

This year’s event, the 19th edition of the award scheme, has been lauded by many as flawless except for some few controversies which is normal for any such event.

The twist about this year’s event was also that most artistes who were tipped by their fans to win certain categories of the awards were surprised that night as the awards went to different people.

YEN.com.gh has compiled a list of 7 loud artistes who didn’t win any awards at the 2018 VGMA’s.

1. Patapaa

Patapaa became the most popular artiste after the VGMA because he together with his fans thought they have been cheated. According to Patapaa, his song ‘One Corner’ which broke boundaries was supposed to win most popular song of the year but the award which is 100 per cent public votes went to Fancy Gadam’s ‘Total Cheat’.

3. Gifty Osei

Known by her fans as ‘Empress One’, the gospel musician was soloud on social media this year. She even hinted that her dream was to win a Grammy award in an interview. But Empress didn’t win any award at the VGMAs.

4. Shatta Wale

But for winning the collaboration of the year, Shatta Wale would have gone home empty handed. Well, obviously he did because that award is a collective one. Shatta Wale made it so clear that he stood a chance of winning even the Artiste of the Year hours before the awards.

5. Joyce Blessing

Joyce Blessing didn’t win any award this year. Her ‘Boot 4 Boot’ didn’t do the magic her previous songs had done.

6. Kumi Guitar

Kumi Guitar was so loud on social media. He even released a ‘diss’ song for Stonebwuoy when the latter had issues with his label, Zylofon Music. Kumi Guitar probably expected to win something but his category was very tough.

7. MzVee

MzVee had great songs in the year in revies but things didn’t just go her way. She was not particularly loud but her songs did the talking for her.
